Etymology
Of uncertain origin. Possibly of North Germanic origin (compare Icelandic söggur (“moist”), dialectal Norwegian søgg (“moist”), dialectal Swedish sögg, sygg (“something moist”)), from Old Norse söggr (“dank, wet”), from Proto-Germanic *sawwijaz, a derivative of Proto-Germanic *sawwą (“moisture, sap, juice”), related to Old English ġesēaw (“full of moisture, soaked”), Old English sēaw (“moisture, juice, humour”).[1] The verb is possibly related to soak.

- Two red-coated sportsmen, while hunting close to our village the other day, got into a small but deep pond. They were said to have fallen into the “stank,” and got “zogged” through: for a small pond is a “stank,” and to be “zogged” is equivalent to being soaked.
